While Type 3186’s standard encasement is by compression with the capacitor element captured on an aluminum peg in the can bottom and a phenolic peg in the top, rilled construction is available. With rilled construction the element is secured by rills, spoon shaped dimples in the side of the can. Rilled construction off ers the industry’s highest vibration and shock withstanding and excellent heat transfer. Besides increasing ripple current handling, the rilled construction extends the great value of the Type 3186 into military and transportation applications that require rugged mechanical capability.

Highlights

- Rilled cans withstand high shock and vibration

- High ripple current capability

- High capacitance per can
